Science Art + Drawing Games

We had a bunch of left over Easter Egg Dye, and decided to turn put a little twist on classic science experiment! Since the kiddos especially enjoy baking soda fizzy eruptions, we decided to make some exploding paint. Have you seen our Exploding Rocket Art? It is seriously cool! This is a milder version, but still lots of fun for preschool kiddos. Bottle rocket experiment with baking soda and vinegar For help creating graphs, try this website:

When we mix vinegar (HCH 3COO) and baking soda (NaHCO 3), we get the so-called acid-base reaction. Here vinegar is an acid and baking soda is a base. An acid is a chemical that wants to get rid of a positively charged hydrogen atom (proton) and base wants that proton. In that reaction when the baking soda receives proton from the acid, it transforms into water and carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide rapidly expands, and if the space is too small, it explodes. 1-800-875-3214 [email protected] This is how your bottle rocket works. The rocket is pushing water downwards, which means that the water pushes the rocket upwards so hard that it overcomes gravity and will fly! Baking soda rocket experiment
